We'd be celebrating our 6 new players.  Although I think Nader won't make the team. Fans are always going to debate and talk about coulda, shoulda, woulda, but you weren't there.  I guess debate is somewhat productive but it's really not.  It leads to a lot of crazyness and disapointment.  It's good for establishing value around the league I guess but Ainge does this anyways knows what trades are good and what's bad.  I wouldn't have made any of the trades offered either.  It's fun to talk about but I was better off without the internet honestly.  I'd rather just talk about our new players.  Ainge has said all along they are in this for the long haul.  I'm not worried about it.  A lot of talk.

All this stuff like this was a 2 player draft.  Danny didn't move the needle is bs to me. It's a bunch of so called experts who don't know what they are talking about.   

We just drafted 5 high energy athletic big players and good people too.  I'm thrilled.

Stevens got his guy in Brown.  Yab  can do a lot of different things we lacked last  year in the playoffs.  Zizic is an up tempo physical center. I've been wanting a guy like this for a while. I've been wanting an athletic SF.  I've been wanting a draymond green type of guy.  JAckson is another sparkplug and Bentil is a good player as well.   Plus we picked up another  1st round pick and Ainge didn't stick us with 8 rookies.  We got 5.  Nader is a good pick too because we can just cut him.

Danny or Wyc have never promised said we are doing fireworks. They have always said if they could make big trades and good trades  they would but are in this for the long haul. I've said the same things.  I don't get what it is people don't understand.  Brown was a very good pick who I liked very early on.  Ainge found YAb vs drafting overhyped guys and I said this too.  I predicted that pick in ways before he made it too. SAid we'd go big with one of our later picks as well.  I love what Ainge did.  I don't know why that is, vs people who don't but made perfect sense to me.

I'm glad Ainge didn't pander and do something stupid and stuck to his guns.  Talk leads to different scenarios which is good if it's the right move but it also is just a lot of talk.

When GM's make moves to pander to the fans that's when it's bad.  So you didn't get what you wanted.  It's  a team sport.
